| The '''M310 smooth-bore high-velocity cannon''' is a weapon system that is dual-mounted in the turret of the [[UNSC]]'s [[M850 Main Battle Tank|M850 "Grizzly" Main Battle Tank]].<ref name="EVG">'''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 86''</ref> The cannons are jokingly referred to as the "'''main funs'''" by the crews of the Grizzly.<ref name="universe">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/grizzly '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Grizzly'']</ref> | | The '''M310 smooth-bore high-velocity cannon''' is an anti-tank weapon that fires High-Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT) shells at extremely high velocity. The kinetic force adds to the explosive firepower of the shell.<ref>'''[[Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide]]''', ''page 42''</ref> Two such cannons served as the main armament of [[Sergeant]] [[John Forge]]'s self-created [[Grizzly]] tanks.

| ==Overview==
| |
| The M310 guns are considered to be exceptionally powerful and are capable of utilising [[S1 canister shell|canister shell]] ammunition which produces a large carpet of explosive submunitions, greatly increasing the weapon's lethality against tightly packed targets.{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The cannons are capable of overwhelming an [[Energy shielding|energy shielded]] enemy vehicle's defences and piercing its hull in a single volley. When paired, the two cannons have a high rate of fire due to the Grizzly's turret featuring an innovative mechanism that uses the recoil impulse of one gun to more rapidly load the other.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}}
